4 cards are shown to be the 4 fours. The spades and clubs are dealt to one side and the hearts and diamonds to the other.
 
A game of monte is played with the two red cards, and the spectator guesses wrong although he saw exactly where the cards were dealt.
 
You give him another change with the black fours. Again he guesses wrong. Now you play the game with a red and black card. Wonge again. Finally he is asked the names of the two remaining cards and when he turns them over, they are not fours at all but wo entirely different cards.
 
Condition Notes:  Overall complete and in very good condition with only minor age-related wear and possibly some light discoloration.
